Opinion

1. A gentleman cannot have a lady for his wife.

CURIA, viz., DODERIDGE, J., and WHITLOCK, J. This would have been a good exception to the writ, but it is too late now.

2. It does not appear on what land the fetches grew.

The court allowed this exception, and there was a rule for judgment nisicausa, etc. Noy, 88; Poph., 208; Bendl., 198. *Page 758
